I had high Hopes for this pan with it being non stick. But after just 2 days of using it, pre seasoning it too, I cooked a hamburger and after it accumulated crust from the fat and it doesnt come off. I used a steel scrubber and nothing. Dont buy this. Surprised at the good reviews. I have other non stick cast iron pans and they work like a charm. They just didnt come in the 8 inch size and why I bought this one. Not sure if I can return full of gunk, but Ill try.
